Architecture does not exist without transitions, and transitions do not exist without connections. Therefore, details as connections are ubiquitous in architecture. However, the way they facilitate transitions from one architectural element to another, is unique in each architectural composition. The varying approaches in applying details as facilitators of transitions, are generally driven by expression, function, or both. When architectural detailing is executed as an expression, it can be observed as a solution driven by human perception.
Question 1: What is a Brownfield site? Any land which was previously used, but is not used now-the land must be vacant, derelict or contaminated-quite often the land must be decontaminated and restored before being re-used. Question 2: what is a Greenfield site? It’s a land that has never been built on. Question 3: Describe the term sustainability Making sure that whatever we do to the environment now does not damage it beyond repair for the future.
Three management concepts that I will need to apply to my desired career are establish agendas, manage day to day operations, and establish and enforce rules and procedures. I must establish an agenda for the leasing of the real-estate by making necessary marketing contacts to have the property listed to the general public. There must be an agenda on showing and renting a unit out to prospective tenants and
A linear economy system means that it is an open system which would continue its process in a forward direction without turning back. A finite planet is a planet that can’t neither expand nor contract; it stays in the same shape. When we operate a linear economy system into a finite planet, we would eventually use all the natural resources provided in the earth and we would trash them when we don’t need them or we can’t use them

In order to have a multidisciplinary perspective when conducting research Feather believes that research must be conducted in environments where there is no control over the natural habitat, and that there are no controllable variables. In this way this would be able to develop theories that encompass a large population not just a controlled individual.
Lake Nyos is a crater lake located in northwestern Cameroon, about 315 kilometers from Yaoundé, Cameroon’s capital city. Lake Nyos, which is over 200 meters deep and occupies an area of about 1.5 square kilometers, is situated within the Oku Volcanic Field, a group of volcanoes on the Cameroon Volcanic Line. On August 21, 1986 a disaster struck the villages of Nyos, Kam, Cha, and Subum. Almost 1,700 people, along with thousands of cattle and virtually all wildlife, were found dead, with no obvious cause of death. Scientists from around the world flocked to the valley villages to uncover the mystery behind the massive loss of life, both human and other.
Therefore, architecture is a natural subject for phenomenological investigation. As individuals, we immerse ourselves in the spaces we inhabit and form our own individual and unique experiences. By immersing ourselves in the spaces we inhabit, we interact with the form, textures and smells of the building which we are in. Can an inert thing such as a building help support the development of human beings' experiences; theref help with his or her understanding of the world that they are physically in? The concept of phenomenological architecture seeks to provide a balanced and holistic phy manifestation of explaining, describing and representing an architectural intention that places emphasis on the human experience.
- Subjectivity or individualism has to be relative to this normality. Scope There are many different approaches to thinking about an architecture fit for the individual. The most basic concept is to simply leave the space totally open so that each user can fit-out the space with walls and materials as they choose. Open building planning allows the theoretical maximum amount of freedom within a space because the users make all of the choices about how the space will be designed. Another option is to design each apartment differently to make each one of the apartment’s individual within the building.
In this contractual agreement, the contractor assumes the responsibility of all work, whether design or construction. Theoretically, the employer is exempt from all other obligations except the acceptance of design and payment recommendations of work performed. Design and construction contracts are an excellent contract method used worldwide. As the name implies, this type of contract is used when design and construction are carried out simultaneously during the term of the contract. However, many homeowners tend to choose different contract methods because a design and build contract can present challenges and situations in which the final costs can not be easily determined or
